The ''1963 Golden State 400'' was a NASCAR Grand National Series (now Sprint Cup Series) event that was held on November 3, 1963 at Riverside International Raceway in Riverside, California. The race car drivers still had to commute to the races using the same stock cars that competed in a typical weekend's race through a policy of homologation (and under their own power). This policy was in effect until roughly 1975. By 1980, NASCAR had completely stopped tracking the year model of all the vehicles and most teams did not take stock cars to the track under their own power any more. ==Summary== This event took four hours and twenty-one seconds to resolve itself; Darel Dieringer defeated Dave MacDonald by at least one lap.〔 More than 32000 people would watch a 148-lap race on a road course spanning and speeds averaging .〔〔 Dan Gurney won the pole position driving at speeds of up to but Marvin Panch substituted for him on the day of the race.〔 Only one caution was given out for the entire racing event.〔〔 Forty-one American-born races would qualify for this race and Bruce Worwell would finish in last place due to an engine problem on the first lap of the race.〔〔 The race purse would add up to $33,780 ($ when adjusted for inflation); with the winner receiving $7,875 ($ when adjusted for inflation) and the last place finisher receiving only $200 ($ when adjusted for inflation). Richard Petty attempted to drive five laps using automatic transmission but his transmission failed after only five laps into the race; proving that NASCAR may always be for vehicles with manual transmission. He would go on to become a replacement driver for Junior Johnson; although Johnson get credit for the fifth-place finish. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1963 Golden State 400」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
